Enabling Email Alert and Understanding Email Format
When data store destination is nearing full capacity or the free space of destination folder reaches the warning threshold or error threshold, email alert is sent to special recipients to notify about the situation. To receive email alert, you need to configure email settings and enable the option to receive email alerts.
To enable the configuration, follow these steps:
- Select the check box of Send an email alert when a destination is nearing full capacity while adding / modifying / importing the data store.
-
- Configure Email button appears.
- Click Configure Email.
- Email Settings dialog appears.
-
- Enter details in Email Settings, and click OK.
- Email is configured to receive all alerts for data store.
- Note: Test Email verifies if the Recipients email ID is receiving email. We recommend to click and test before closing this dialog.
Email alert is sent to configured recipients when:
- Data store path capacity is changed from healthy to warning range (reaches warning threshold value).
- Data Store path capacity is changed from warning range to error range (reaches error threshold value).
- Data store destination folder releases some space (such as, after data store merge job, enlarging destination volume space, and so on) and leaves warning / error threshold to healthy range.
